Coffee acts as USB mouse

Besides giving a force to ward off sleep, mug, mouse comes with a manifesto for the right to enjoy time on the computer
Caffeine and computers are old friends, and steaming cups often save the routine of Internet users and workers. So the idea of designer Louise Klinker seems as natural as incredible: a coffee mug that serves as optical mouse.
Full of coffee (or beverage), the object connected by USB only needs to be pushed back and forth, just like a cursor. For the “click”, just a stronger pressure of the mug on the table, says the inventor. And between one and another click, take a sip.
Besides giving a force to ward off sleep, mug, mouse comes with a manifesto for the right to enjoy time on the computer. “Full of liquid, need to be more careful when moving the cup. We preach a more rapid and less use of organic technologies day-to-day, with greater personal involvement, “explained the designer on the project site.
